Book Synopsis Nuclear Proliferation in the Indian Subcontinent by : Hooman Peimani
Download or read book Nuclear Proliferation in the Indian Subcontinent written by Hooman Peimani and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-08-30 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main impact of the May 1998 nuclear tests of India and Pakistan was not on the nuclear non-proliferation regime, Peimani asserts, but on the structure of the international system. The tests could not encourage massive nuclear proliferation as many natural factors prevent such a scenario, but they surely contributed to the weakening of the mainly American-dominated international system. The failure of nuclear India and Pakistan to achieve their objectives has increased their dissatisfaction with a system which they see as discriminating against them on the grounds of their insignificant nuclear arsenals and their severe underdevelopment. Given their limited resources, their attempts to deal with these problems in the near future and, in particular to develop credible arsenals, would be self-exhausting and not feasible. Their failure has turned them into dissatisfied regional powers who are being pushed toward forming alliances with their long-time friends, Russia and China, respectively. Each has strong reasons for dissatisfaction with the American system, which is marginalizing them. Their concerns about common enemies and threats as well as their economic and political needs are pushing these states toward the formation of tacit or official alliances. Decades of friendship and extensive ties make them natural allies and encourage the formation of an alliance between India and Russia on the one side, and China and Pakistan on the other. By creating strong regional poles, these predictably hostile alliances will contribute to the weakening of the international system and the consolidation of a rising multipolarity. Scholars, students, and researchers involved with foreign policy, American-Indian and American-Pakistani relations, and international military-political relations will find this analysis of particular interest.

Book Synopsis Strategic Dynamics and Nuclear Weapons Proliferation in South Asia by : Bhumitra Chakma
Download or read book Strategic Dynamics and Nuclear Weapons Proliferation in South Asia written by Bhumitra Chakma and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses India and Pakistan's decision to 'go nuclear' against the odds of Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty-based nuclear order. It reflects upon the key factors that contributed to, and the process that prompted India and Pakistan's nuclear programmes to take a military orientation, which eventually culminated in the May 1998 nuclear tests. It also explains the motivation which underscored both India and Pakistan's determination to advance nuclear postures in 1998 that appeared to be inconsistent with the post-Cold War global strategic environment. Further, this book explains why international and regional nuclear non-proliferation regimes were ineffective in preventing India and Pakistan from going nuclear.

Book Synopsis The Consequences of Nuclear Proliferation by : Devin T. Hagerty
Download or read book The Consequences of Nuclear Proliferation written by Devin T. Hagerty and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hagerty analyzes how India and Pakistan interacted in diplomatic and military crises before their 1998 nuclear tests. He presents detailed studies of the January 1987 Indo-Pakistani crisis, precipitated by India's Brasstacks military exercises, and the 1990 confrontation over Kashmir. Hagerty concludes that relations between India and Pakistan in recent years support the argument that nuclear proliferation does not necessarily destabilize international relations and may even reduce the risk of war.

Book Synopsis Nuclear Disarmament by : Lt Gen (Retd) V R Raghavan
Download or read book Nuclear Disarmament written by Lt Gen (Retd) V R Raghavan and published by Vij Books India Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 2011-05-10 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indian policy on nuclear disarmament has been one of long standing support and approval of measures leading to it. The first decade of 21st century has seen a resurgence of support for global nuclear disarmament. A cascade of nuclear disarmament proposals has emerged from different sources. There has been little interaction between India and Europe on nuclear issues. The seminar on Nuclear Non-Proliferation and Disarmament held in June 2010 in New Delhi was one such attempt to build awareness on Indian and European perspectives on nuclear disarmament. This book is based on the seminar held in New Delhi. The position of Germany and Poland were of special interest to the discourse and this volume offers an excellent insight into it.
Book Synopsis The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and India by : Rajiv Nayan
Download or read book The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and India written by Rajiv Nayan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty with India has been an interesting subject in the field of security studies. The nuclearisation of India and its subsequent rise are further forcing the world to redefine its relationship with the treaty. However, the international response is quite mixed. The old mindset still thinks that India may join the treaty as a Non-Nuclear Weapon State. Scholars appear divided whether India should join the treaty as a nuclear weapon country. The book discusses current crises of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty which are going to figure in the 2010 Review Conference of the treaty. This book was published as a special issue of The Strategic Analysis.

Unlike other books, this volume emphasises the political dimension of South Asia's nuclear weapons, explains how the bombs are used as politico-strategic assets rather than pure battlefield weapons and how they are employed by India and Pakistan in an extremely complex and competitive South Asian strategic landscape.
Download or read book New Nukes written by Praful Bidwai and published by Signal Books. This book was released on 2000 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear tests in India and Pakistan brought the threat of nuclear war back to the world's centre stage. The tests and nuclear moves have raised regional tension, increased poverty in already impoverished nations, and could possibly have fuelled an arms race which goes beyond the borders of the two countries. This text examines the causes and consequences of India and Pakistani nuclear tests. The book provides a framework for understanding the global context of these tests, and looks at approaches for nuclear abolition in Asia and the West.
Book Synopsis Nuclear Weapons? by : Bhabani Sen Gupta
Download or read book Nuclear Weapons? written by Bhabani Sen Gupta and published by SAGE Publications Pvt. Limited. This book was released on 1983 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to consider and spell out nuclear policy options for India. As a major contribution to the literature on nuclear proliferation, this pioneering and thought provoking work outlines the policy dilemmas and options with regard to nuclear weapons available to a country like India. Professor Sen Gupta outlines the options open to India as well as the external pressures on India to go nuclear -- the result is essential reading for anyone interested in the study of nuclear weapons, and policy makers in general. '...his incisive analysis of this subject of great misunderstanding is in itself an achievement of the first order. Anyone willing to examine the subject in depth will undoubtedly find this book invaluable.' -- Amrita Bazar Patrika, April 1984 'The book is factual, lucid and comprehensive...It is a book that outlines clearly the nuclear weapons policy options for India, which from the outset were its claims.' -- Teaching Politics, Vol 8 No3/4 '...coming as it does almost exactly a decade after India's first, and until now only nuclear explosion (1974), the volume constitutes a timely contribution to contemporary thinking on India's nuclear weapons policy...what this volume does bring out is the complexity and diversity of contemporary Indian thinking on the nuclear problem as it relates to the South Asian region.' -- Arms Control May 1984

Book Synopsis Nuclear Proliferation in South Asia by : Manas Chatterji
Download or read book Nuclear Proliferation in South Asia written by Manas Chatterji and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-24 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book explains the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) compulsions to commit its government in the election manifesto of 2014 to study the Indian Nuclear Doctrine (IND) and “revise and update” it to make it relevant to contemporary geostrategic realities. Contributors to this volume have cited Pakistan’s deployment of tactical nuclear weapons (TNWs) and use of international terrorism (IT) as the main reasons for the BJP advocating a review of the IND. It is suggested that the addition of use of TNWs or IT by state or non-state actors in the existing IND is a sufficient cause for India to ensure massive retaliation with a second strike. To make the threat of a second strike realistic, it is necessary to acquire sufficient second strike capabilities, in particular submarine launched ballistic missiles. What is the relevance of IND in the absence of India not having a declared national security doctrine? Nuclear know-how is necessary for generating nuclear energy; various issues relating to it are analysed. The IND also claims nuclear disarmament as its inseparable goal, and this book highlights the Indian commitment to achieve it. Issues raised here have a global reach. Students of international relations, diplomats, policy-makers and those attentive to public debate will find the book interesting and immensely useful.
Book Synopsis Nuclear Proliferation in South Asia by : Sumit Ganguly
Download or read book Nuclear Proliferation in South Asia written by Sumit Ganguly and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-08-06 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume explores competing perspectives on the impact of nuclear weapons proliferation on the South Asian security environment. The spread of nuclear weapons is one of the world’s foremost security concerns. The effect of nuclear weapons on the behaviour of newly nuclear states, and the potential for future international crises, are of particular concern. As a region of burgeoning economic and political importance, South Asia offers a crucial test of proliferation’s effects on the crisis behaviour of newly nuclear states. This volume creates a dialogue between scholars who believe that nuclear weapons have stabilized the subcontinent, and those who believe that nuclear weapons have made South Asia more conflict prone. It does so by pairing competing analyses of four major regional crises: the 1987 "Brasstacks" crisis, the Indo-Pakistani crisis of 1990, the 1999 Kargil war, which occurred after the nuclear tests; and the 2001–2 Indo-Pakistani militarized standoff. In addition, the volume explores the implications of the South Asian nuclear experience for potential new nuclear states such as North Korea and Iran.
